Description

In a raucous stand up career spanning 25 years and 7 continents, Tom Rhodes has been on HBO, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and filmed two half hour specials for Comedy Central. Tom was also the host of his own late night talk show in Amsterdam for Dutch television. Starting out at the tender age of 17, in Orlando, Florida, he was soon touring the Southern United States and up the eastern seaboard to New York City. But it wasn’t until Tom moved to San Francisco, that he discovered his comedic voice. Here in the city he describes as ‘The Jerusalem of Stand-Up Comedy’ he was discovered by Comedy Central. Tom was given the channel’s first ever development deal contract which led to his critically acclaimed hour special ‘Viva Vietnam! : A White Trash Adventure Tour’. The following year at the Montreal Comedy Festival he was ‘discovered’ again, this time by NBC who gave him his own sitcom on the network called ‘Mr. Rhodes.’
